Timeline: January 27, 2021

It has been 4 days since Heyoung last encountered SEVENTEEN. She misses the chaotic SEVENTEEN. She also hopes that she will have an interaction again.

Being home again in Seoul makes her uneasy since she is used to working back in London, where she does not rest. She's been busy finishing decorating her apartment, which makes her active while still looking for a job.

The job offer that Jaehyuk offered to her is that she's still deciding whether to accept it or not. A job that requires interacting with a K-pop idol is not her thing. Especially encountering some insane and massive fans of these K-pop idols.

“Maybe working in some cafes may help me financially as long as I save up some money,” I said to myself while folding some laundry. “And if I still don't have any stable job right now, maybe I will accept Jaehyuk-oppa's offer.”

As soon as I finished folding my laundry, I went to the bathroom to hit the showers. Later on, I went outside to look at some cafes that are hiring staff.

Upon looking, I stopped at a cafe that had some cosy spirit to hang out in. Eventually, as I stepped in, I could smell the tasty aroma around the place. I decided to order as my stomach started to growl.

Might as well eat!

“Hi! What's your order, Ma'am?” The girl with light blue highlights asked. I looked at their menu, and I was delighted that they had some of my favourites. “One white mocha latte and one pesto pasta.” I smiled at the girl while looking at her name tag.

Ahn Eunhye

I took my seat near the window to enjoy the busy street filled with people who were either late for work, hanging out, or just casually shopping. While minding the view, I took out my phone to picture it and later on to play with it.

The girl earlier placed my order at my table, I thanked her for that. I proceeded to eat my pesto as more people entered the cafe—peaceful and cosy surroundings, which made me relax for a bit—no noise coming inside except the noise outside.

A sudden buzz on my phone ruined my peace. Glancing at it, I saw that Jaehyuk-oppa was calling me. Basically, I wanted to ignore it cause I want peace, but I need to answer it before Jaehyuk-oppa will kill me.

[ Finally, you answered my call,] He said dramatically. Anyway, can you help me with something? ]

[ Uh…sure ] I said while drinking my mocha. What is it? ]

Before he could reply, I could hear from the other side of the call the shouts and background music.

Help me manage the boys cause the other two managers called in sick. ]

Well, it looks like I will be seeing them again.

Like just 4 days ago, I'm standing in front of HYBE—I immediately had access to their system, no need for verification since Jaehyuk-oppa handled it.

“Heyoung-ah!”

I saw Jaehyuk-oppa running towards me, carrying two plastic bags in both of his hands. I went to him and helped him carry the bags. On our way, he explained to me the situation—he couldn't handle some members since most of them had different schedules to follow.

He led me towards SEVENTEEN’s practice room—loud music blasting from the speakers, and everyone seemed to be in their own business. Jaehyuk-oppa and I put down the plastic bags on the table near the music system.

“Everyone, take a break!” Jaehyuk-oppa shouted, but none of them seemed to hear him. Due to that, Jaehyuk-oppa let out a sigh. “I brought food!”

I blinked twice as I watched the hard-on focus boys make their way towards me and Jaehyuk-oppa, like the mention of food made them a hungry beast who hadn't eaten for a year. I helped Jaehyuk-oppa distribute the food.

“Hyung!!!”“You're a lifesaver!”“Smells good, hyung!”

The last member who got his food was none other than the general leader himself. As I gave him his food, our hands brushed for a second. Making me blush(which is not noticeable)---he thanked me with his dimple showing up.

As all the members had their food with them, Jaehyuk-oppa gave me food coming from the plastic bags. “I don't wanna starve my little gem.”

I smiled at him and took the food from him. After taking it from him, I made my way to find a place to sit and eat my food. I noticed that Scoups is looking at me as if he is telling me to sit with him.

I chuckled and made my way towards him–he moved to the side and guided me to sit properly. At first, it was awkward since we both didn't know how to start our conversation. Luckily, that awkward silence didn't last long as the evil twins made their way towards us.

“Coups-ahh, Heyoung-ahh,” Jeonghan said as he took a bite of Scoups’ food. “Sorry to interrupt your space here.” He added.

I shook my head while letting out a little laugh. “No, no, take a seat.”

As long as some is talking, then no awkward silence.
